Customer Question

I am being accused of possession of drugs for distribution, i need my time sheets from my previous job to confirm that I was at work ten hours a day with only 2 days off. and would not have time to sell or do drugs.JA: Because employment law varies from place to place, can you tell me what state this is in?Customer: NJJA: Has anything been filed or reported?Customer: I go to trial in January. My public defender doesnt think it matters, but i do.JA: Anything else you want the lawyer to know before I connect you?Customer: no

Have you requested these from your previous employer? If so, why will they not turn them over? Is that State claiming that they have evidence of your distributing and selling drugs when you were actually at work?

The drugs were not in my possession. They were in my daughter's room. Because she was not home at the time the apt. was raided they arrested me instead. Now they are trying to say either I allowed it to happen or I was the one doing it. The charges are equivalent to more than 10yrs in jail. I am new to this. I lost my job and after finding another job, the offer was rescinded after they saw that I have a pending court case in January.

This is something you can request and obtain, from your employer, as a former employee. If for some reason they do not provide them, then a court order can be obtained for them to be turned over and you can get them that way. If you feel that your attorney is NOT acting in your best interest or properly representing you, you can ask that they withdraw, if there is a conflict of interest and advise the Judge of the same, at your next hearing. The charges, as you are aware, are serious. If the work log/hours provide you with an alibi, showing that you were working at the time and could not have done or committed the crime which they alleged, then it is a defense to raise.
